installing freessl on an existing domain

Please keep in mind I'm a bigtime n00bie when it comes to Linux..

Do I need to delete the domain I am trying to put the dedicated IP and SSL on before doing this? I've seen that mentioned in some places, but not in other places.

I've already moved the site to its own IP address. (as a side note, http:// is back up but http://www. is not after I moved the site about 8 hours ago, hope that will not be a problem)

I'm doing this on a WHM/cPanel server for a domain that currently exists and has a fairly heavily-modded forum with it that I don't want to mess with if I don't have to.

I've seen several tidbits of info on how to install this, but no clearcut WHM-specific complete directions on how this is done.

I have root access as well.

Can anyone show me a link that explains this better than what I've found in the cpanel newsgroups and googling so far?

Should I just forego the WHM method and do it directly in Linux?
